PruSSian Game.

For the year ending with March,
1886, the value of the game killed in
the woods and forests of Prussia is esti-
mated at S3,000,000. The keepers are
said to have greatly added to the i'm
portance of the national game-bag by
their vigilance in protecting the valua-
bic game from the vermln which de.
stroy it. They killed during the
period named more than a quarter OF
a million head of vermin, among which
are reckoned foxes, stoats, weasels,
martens, polecats, badgers, offers,
wildcats and birds of prey. Only
four wolves were taken, the curious fact
having been observed that the German
wolves followed the German army into
France during the winter of 1870, and
have remained there.

One would think that an earthquake
was required to break up the selfish
business habits of the American people,
writes a New York correspondent of
The Cincinnati Enquirer. | was look
ing out of a club window recently at a
great, huge grocery store opposite,
known all oyer this land. There is
probably no grocery firm in America as
well known-certainly none in New
York. Said to a well-informed person
by me: ''Do you know those grocers?"
Yes" said he, Il go over there to set
tie the bills for this club. We buy
everything there, liquors and all. That
old chap you see out there now is the
head of the house. 1 can see by the
way he is walking that he has just
come up from down town, where he
has been tasting butter"
what does he taste butter for?"
''Why, he has made his fortune on
that He is the best judge of butter
in New York. Butter in New York
City is managed by combination;
they fix the prices, and nothing much
can alter them. 1t Is one of the great
articles at the foundation of the gro
Gerry business. That old fellow can
put butter in his mouth from any
where, and he can locate it and tell
what is wrong about it, and whether it
is going to spoil. You can't run any
oleomargarne in on him."
as that the man | bave heard the
ladies speak about, who was so sweet
that butter wouldn't melt in his
mouth?"
There is not much sweet about
him." said my friend He is a slave
to his business. He began life some
where down town about the time we
were born. He had partner. The
two partners are together yet. They
had some $3.50 apiece, saved or bor-
rowed, with which they set up a gro
Gerry store. One man slept under the
counter and the other slept on tho
counter. They took alternate nights
underneath, for there was bunk, and
but one. Our old friend over there
acquired his taste for butter at that
time. Now the two partners do bus
mess of $6,000,000 a year. That old
fellow you see has summer place a
few miles out of New York, which has
cost HIM S1,000,OO0. He told me not
long ago that he only went up to it on
Saturday nights; Sunday morning he
spends looking at his cows and stock
to see if everything is being fed right.
He furnishes good deal of his own
butter. He gets through about noon
on Sunday and then he says he has
not one minutes peace till he can take
the train that Sunday evening to come
back TO New York and taste more but
ter. He is a slave to his business"

A Mans Body in a Hay Bale.


Last fall a young man named Ander-
son, who was working on ranch in
Carson Valley, suddenly disappeared,
and although an exhaustive search
was made for him, no trace of his
whereabouts could be discovered.
When last seen he was working near a
hay-baler. He was first missed at the
dinner table, but no special anxiety
was felt, as it was supposed that he
had LAID down through sickness. His
disappearance was nine days talk.
and it was finally surmised that he had
left the country on account of love
affair. Day before yesterday, however.
he turned up in Virginia City. William
Mooney, the stableman, purchased a
load of alfalfa hay in bales of the
rancher on whose place Anderson had
been missed. He went to open one of
the bales, when he found inside the
body of Anderson in good state of
preservation. 1t is now rumored that
Anderson, who was working at the
machine, fell in and the helpers about
the spot were too busy talking politics
to notice him, and so he was tied up
along with the balance of the hay. He
evidently died of suffocatlon and made
no sign. Mr.. Mooney has carefully ex-
amined the rest of the hay, but has
found no more bodies. The remains
were given Christian burial, and the
same style of hay is now selling for SIS
a ton. Carson (NeU.) appeal.

in Bleak Alaska.

When Secretary Seward bought
Alaska from Russia he added to the
United States territory of much larger
area than the states of New York,
Pennsylvania Ohio, Illinois. Iowa,
Michigan, Wisconsin and Missouri to-
gether, and nearly nine times larger
than England and Wales. The terri
tory stretches out so far to the west
ward that Stka, its capital, is only half
way from New York city to the most
western Alaskan island. Many of the
details of the formation of Alaska read
like quotations from fairy tales. 1t has
volcano eight thousand feet high.
The Yukon river is at some points from
fifteen to twenty miles wide, its entire
length is two thousand miles and it
empties with such q volume into the
sea that the ocean is said to be fresh
water for ten mles.out. The tempera-
turc does at times fall as low as So de.
grees below zero, but as a rule it Is
mild, on account of sort of gulf
stream known as the Japanese current.
1t was Peter the Great who set on foot
the expedition which finally discovered
Alaska. 1t was in 1925 that the explor.
ers set out to cross Siberia toward the
east, and one of their leaders was Behr-
ing, Dane, who had been long in the
Russian service. He did not land in
Alaska till seventeen years later. and
died on one of the islands off the shore,
which bears his name and where his
body now lies. Spain, England and
France also sent out exploring eXpedi-
tons, and Russia established trading
company, which sold the furs of the
region. But in 1867 Secretary Seward
effected purchase of Alaska for the
United States, which paid Russia ST.
200. 900; and little more than two
years ago it was organized as a civil
and judicial district. At present tho
chief industries are carried on by the
fishery and seal fur companies. In
1880 the catch of salmon was eight
thousand cases; in 1888 thirty six thou
sand cases. and i'm 1885 sixty-tive thou
sand cases, at about So case. The
magnitude of the fur operations may be
seen from the fact that between 1871
and 1888 about S.. 600, 900 was paid by
the company 10 the United States gov
eminent as rent and tax. There are
also mines of coal, lead, copper, silver,
and gold, and vast growth of fine
spruce and cedar, which will some day
prove of great value to the people of
the United States. Lieut.. Schwatka
has twice been on expeditions to the
great northwest territory, and is now
sending home reports of his discover
les, which are full of interest 1t APP
pears to be clear now that Secretary
Seward acted wisely when he negotia-
ted the purchase from Russia. San

cried Eve.

rejoced; and hearing that Johnson was

engaged, she did not rip the patch of
his coat, as he had at first intended to
